- % CC=cc @var{srcdir}/configure [@var{options}] [@var{target}]
-@end smallexample
-
-or you can use a copy of GCC 2.95.3 or higher built on Tru64 UNIX V4.0:
-
-@smallexample
- % CC=gcc -Wa,-oldas @var{srcdir}/configure [@var{options}] [@var{target}]

GCC writes a @samp{.verstamp} directive to the assembler output file
unless it is built as a cross-compiler. It gets the version to use from
the system header file @file{/usr/include/stamp.h}. If you install a

-@samp{make compare} may fail on old versions of DEC Unix unless you add
-@option{-save-temps} to @code{BOOT_CFLAGS}. On these systems, the name
-of the assembler input file is stored in the object file, and that makes
-comparison fail if it differs between the @code{stage1} and
-@code{stage2} compilations. The option @option{-save-temps} forces a
-fixed name to be used for the assembler input file, instead of a
-randomly chosen name in @file{/tmp}. Do not add @option{-save-temps}
-unless the comparisons fail without that option. If you add
-@option{-save-temps}, you will have to manually delete the @samp{.i} and
-@samp{.s} files after each series of compilations.

GCC now supports both the native (ECOFF) debugging format used by DBX
and GDB and an encapsulated STABS format for use only with GDB@. See the
discussion of the @option{--with-stabs} option of @file{configure} above
for more information on these formats and how to select them.
+@c FIXME: does this work at all? If so, perhaps make default.
There is a bug in DEC's assembler that produces incorrect line numbers
for ECOFF format when the @samp{.align} directive is used. To work
DBX@. DEC is now aware of this problem with the assembler and hopes to
provide a fix shortly.
